# ECB Elderson Speech — 22 April 2026

**Event:** Participation by Mr Elderson in conversation "Banking reform in the EU – How should the EU balance banking reform, risk and competitiveness?" organised by Bruegel in Brussels, Belgium.

**Source:** European Central Bank weekly calendar.

**Transcript availability:** The ECB explicitly states "No text will be made available." for this event. Full transcript is not published.

**Note:** This is consistent with ECB's practice of not releasing transcripts for many board member speeches, especially at external conferences/panels. Only policy/reflection speeches typically receive transcripts.
